Hello everyone, just so you all know about Waste2Tricity how they could affect AFC.

Development Programmes
In addition to its Deployment Projects Waste2Tricity also uses its expertise to advance development programmes to maximise returns for its shareholders.

Facilities generating electricity by way of high temperature gasification (and thus producing clean syngas) have the potential to produce renewable hydrogen by separation from the syngas stream. This can in turn power new generation developmental fuel cells. The introduction of hydrogen fuel cells, replacing internal combustion engines/gas turbines, could increase system efficiency by up to an estimated 70%.

Waste2Tricity has selected AFC Energy’s fuel cell system as having the greatest potential to be the most efficient, low cost technology for generating electrical power from gasified waste and in a £1 million deal, Waste2Tricity has acquired the exclusive deployment rights (for use in energy-from-waste applications) for AFC Energy fuel cells in the UK.

Waste2Tricity is also working with AIM quoted, PowerHouse Energy Group plc. PHEÂ has developed the innovative PHE G3-UHt waste-to-energy, ultra-high temperature gasification reactor technology together with auxiliary waste and power solutions. This technology provides a mechanism to dispose of a wide range of waste streams by using them as feedstock that can be converted to synthesis gas (syngas) whichÂ in turn can be used to generate electricity for export to the grid or for use within an enterprise. Importantly the PHE gasifier has a small footprint and a commercial size starting at 25 tonnes a day, making them suitable for deployment at enterprise or community level. Having invested years into leading-edge scientific research and development, spending millions of dollars in testing and optimizing the core gasification technology, PowerHouse Energy is on the cusp of delivering its first commercial facilities to the world.
